This is why I focus on Stephen Miller’s fascism. In college 30 yrs ago when I studied Nazi Germany I remember thinking who could EVER forget this history and BUILD POLICY torturing vulnerable populations?!
DEI, DACA etc were built to protect against these worst human instincts.
Leaked audio from inside ICE detention—woman begs to self deport.
Not receiving medication for her severe anemia.
Hemoglobin levels so low—doctor said it's life threatening.
"I only ask that you deport me," she cries.
"I've been waiting 4 months since signing papers—nothing."
"I just want to get to Venezuela with my children and my family."
"It seems unfair to me that people who want to leave are being held... and people who want to stay are being forced out."
Her hemoglobin level of 4.1 g/dL is critically low and life threatening.
Carrying a high risk of heart failure, organ damage, and death—without immediate medical intervention such as a transfusion.
Every week her deportation officer gives her the runaround making up different excuses for her remaining locked up.
And no lawyer will take her case because she's already signed self deportation papers so her case is officially closed.
Enderin Briceño is detained at the private GEO Group prison Mochano Valley ICE Facility in Philipsburg, Pennsylvania.
Her lawyer Lorena Vargas Hernández doesn’t have an active account on this platform—so posting first full length and credited video here to help raise awareness.
No one is “invading” our country from the border. However completely irrational corrupt egomaniacs have invaded the White House but no one seems to be responding to that five alarm fire.
Trump is having a full-blown meltdown: "Here we go again! With the perceived loss by the Republicans in the Midterms - I WAS NOT ON THE BALLOT- the INVASION of our Country is taking place again. Huge CARAVANS are forming and beginning their illegal march through Mexico. Many of the people in these Caravans are those that various countries don’t want - 'Send them to America,' they say - But they will not be accepted! MEXICO MUST STOP THEM, NOW, and if they do not do so, the Tariffs on Mexico will be IMMEDIATELY DOUBLED. MEXICO, THE GOVERNOR OF TEXAS, THE VERY LIBERAL NEW GOVERNOR OF TEXAS, OUR GREAT BORDER PATROL, & ICE, HAVE BEEN SO INFORMED. There will be no leniency! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP"
This new Reuters report is stunning.
A week before the U.S. captured Venezuela's leader, JD Vance reportedly met at a private Montana ski club with John Addison, an oil trader who had given $300,000 to help elect Vance to the Senate in 2022. Vance allegedly asked how fast Venezuela's oil could be sold if America took control of it.
Both men deny the meeting.
Flight records show their planes parked together that day.
Two days after the Venezuela operation, Energy Secretary Chris Wright called Addison and offered his company, Vitol, the job of selling Venezuela's oil. There was no public bidding. Vitol and one rival have since made hundreds of millions of dollars.
Addison and his wife also gave $7 million to help elect Trump, and he now chairs a board advising Secretary Wright.
Congress has a duty to act.
We should bring Secretary Wright, Vitol, and Addison in to testify under oath. We should demand the phone records, emails, and flight logs. We should find out whether anyone got a heads-up about a military operation. And we should require open, competitive bidding before any company profits from our foreign policy.
If nothing was wrong, let’s see the records.

ICE "investigators determined that failing medical care preceded the deaths of 23 immigrants in detention...In at least eight of the cases, medical staff failed to perform CPR correctly, or at all." https://t.co/4tNC9le61K
Again, this is why I’m suggesting it’s not enough to wait around and allow Hegseth and Miller to tear apart our country for another 24 months. They have to be removed from office so that the harm stops now. The US gov’t is employed by it’s constituents, they work for the public.
Veteran detained by ICE: I identified myself as a US citizen and a veteran, but that didn't matter. Agents smashed my window, sprayed tear gas and pepper spray into my car, dragged me out. Even after I complied, I was taken to a detention center and held for 3 days without charges. No phone call, no lawyer, no medical care, even though my skin burned from the chemicals.
I don’t have strong feelings about what Nvidia does. I just don’t like to see his wife disrespected as she has stood by him and helped build his empire.
What is super weird though is Nvidia apparently has a higher code of ethical standards for staff than the US gov’t.
Nvidia Preparing to FIRE CEO Jensen Huang
The Wall Street Journal reports that Nvidia’s board could OUST Huang over TWO alleged affairs, one involving a suspected CHINESE SPY.
Nvidia’s VP of Healthcare, Kimberly Powell, has reportedly been identified as the other woman.
Zelensky keeps making so much sense and yet I still see politicians in the US licking Putin’s boots. Greed can be the only plausible answer as to why we would turn our back on Ukraine in this way.
We keep hearing again that Russia supposedly needs security guarantees. Even though no one has attacked Russia for many decades. Since the Second World War, Moscow has not gone through even one decade without starting a war or using military force against another country.
So when the Russians now talk about a security architecture for themselves, or about security guarantees for Russia – they are hardly talking about real security. And peace.
What they really want – is to freely interfere in the affairs of other countries, and to use force whenever they want, and to make sure that no one can support liberty inside Russia because Putin wants to keep his personal power forever and pass on his imperialist and, in many ways, simply fascist views to the next generations.
From a speech at the Danish Folketing. (3/3)
Democrat Scott Colom has made history as the first Black US Senator from Mississippi since Reconstruction.
The longtime district attorney is also the first Black candidate to win any statewide office in Mississippi since Reconstruction.
His shocking upset victory in a state where Donald Trump won by 23 points in 2024 is even more remarkable considering Mississippi’s history.
This was the state where Jim Crow was the most violent and repressive. It was where Emmett Till was lynched and young civil rights workers were murdered by the Ku Klux Klan. There were 581 documented lynchings during the Jim Crow era, more than any other state.
Before the passage of the Voting Rights Act, only 6.7 percent of eligible Black voters were registered to vote in Mississippi.
Now, more than 60 years later, it was Black voters who turned out in record numbers to rewrite the history books, motivated in part by a new struggle to protect voting rights.
As was the case across the South, the Supreme Court’s demolition of the Voting Rights Act in the Louisiana v. Callais decision spurred Black voters to cast their ballots at a historic rate.
For the closing ad of his US Senate campaign, Democrat Scott Colom stood in the driveway of the house that once belonged to Medgar Evers, the civil rights leader who was assassinated by a white supremacist in 1963 while holding t-shirts that said “Jim Crow Must Go.”
“He was killed for helping Mississippians vote,” said Colom. “On Tuesday, use your vote and honor everyone who died for that right.”
@franifio I’m happy to receive this lifetime award tonight as an advocate for veterans and I regret to inform you that as a result the military will continue to be run by a fascist zealot. Now let’s have some hotdogs.
Watch the sweat on Pete Hegseth’s brow as Jon Ossoff takes him apart without ever raising his voice.
Now imagine Ossoff on a presidential debate stage.
Then imagine him in the Oval Office, looking Putin or Xi in the eye and pressing them with that same composure.
I read a substack that broke down Stephen Miller’s speech at Charlie Kirk’s memorial. It did a thorough job of comparing Miller’s language/world view to Heinrich Himmler’s Posen speeches. Miller doesn’t hide that he believes he is ordained to spread fascist ideology. Scary stuff
Stephen Miller is a God damn Nazi devotee and his policies are designed to help the fucker in the White House achieve his goal of the Nazification of America. Wake up and see what Miller is … and has been since he was old enough to know what Hitler’s regime was all about.
@glitch_catAI First so proud that Oregon State was part of this story even if they were my rival, big proud! Second, amazing story and very common for genius men to have equally genius women beside them making incredible things possible. I hope he appreciates her enough to heal this.
There is an active outbreak of avian flu (H5 influenza) in dairy herds in Washington State, particularly the Yakima Valley. A number of dairy workers have been infected, with at least one death. Speaking with workers, we believe the official case numbers are a vast undercount. 1/
I want to thank David Corn for using the word zealot in his article describing Miller because otherwise my mom is going to start telling me to tone it down 😂
Must read article on the predictable origins (Jeff Sessions staffer) of Stephen Miller.
"About a dozen or so years ago, a staffer for Sen. Jeff Sessions, the ultraconservative Republican from Alabama, reached out to me and asked if we could meet.
His name was Stephen Miller. Years later, I was surprised to see him as a top commander in Trump’s MAGA army." https://t.co/wwouwnIuC2
@croptopsllc You are such a good mom, we don’t support each other enough in this role. I know what you do for a living, it’s the hardest most under funded under appreciated job in the world and being a mom is still ten times more responsibility so give yourself a hug for all of the effort.
